Company named a “Contender” and cited for “a strong focus on privacy, security, and governance, with deep knowledge in the healthcare space.”

VANCOUVER, BC, July 13, 2017 – PHEMI, the company delivering big data solutions with built-in privacy, governance, and enterprise-grade management, today announced it was among the select companies that Forrester Research reviewed in its June 2017 evaluation, The Forrester Wave™: Big Data Warehouse, Q2 2017. In its evaluation, Forrester states that big data warehouse minimizes the complexity of messy data and hides heterogeneity by embodying a trusted model and adapting to changing business requirements, and leverages unified metadata, distributed in-memory compute resources, and distributed data repositories to deliver scalable and integrated analytics.

Forrester identifies a big data warehouse market that comprises traditional data warehouse vendors, big data vendors, and niche big data warehouse vendors that focus on analytics and big data. In the report, Forrester says PHEMI “provides the ability to collect, curate, and consume any kind of data, and it offers high-speed data ingestion and processing to support real-time operational and BI applications.”

“We are pleased to be named a Contender in Forrester’s Big Data Warehouse WaveTM,” said Paul Terry, CEO, PHEMI. “Coming as it does on the heels of a new customer announcement and a new round of investor financing, we believe that our inclusion in the Big Data Warehouse Wave shows that PHEMI is meeting market demand for a solution that not only enables the high-speed ingestion and processing of any type of data, but also enables ‘adult supervision of data’—where the right individuals in enterprises get access to the right data at the right time.”

PHEMI recently announced that Discovery, a leading global insurer, has deployed the PHEMI Central Big Data Warehouse solution to unlock new insights and data-driven understanding of the links between behavior and insurance risk. The company also announced a $10 million round of venture capital financing, with Quark Venture, Inc. joining the group of existing investors.
